Happy March! Our theme for this month is “Entrepreneur Ethics” and I am looking forward to the wonderful chats/conversations that will follow the wonderful posts scheduled. Well, I hope you have your “jumping” shoes on, because yesterday’s chat was all about taking leaps in both business and life. Thanks to our chat co-host Tracey Selingo (@traceyselingo) for inspiring and encouraging us to take the leap! If you missed it, read Tracey’s post “Own Your Leap Day” – super inspiring!
Ready… Set… Leap!
#OMHG Highlights:
it’s totally fear of failure and loss of control. i always manage to screw up the courage though. – @lightboxsf
I think if you focus on taking little leaps it gets easier and easier to build the muscle for the big ones – @traceyselingo
@ohmyhandmade @traceyselingo definitely a common thread! the path to success is a bumpy road, but it has some beautiful scenery.– @tif_smith
When we fail/fall/falter we also learn what it is we don’t want to have in our lives-this is equally as vital as knowing what we want. – @ohmyhandmade
ive planned a lot. ive lost a lot. but i think its finally starting to come together w/ a force. – @traceyselingo
@ohmyhandmade @traceyselingo I will reflect on past but only for a moment, otherwise it tends to hold me back from making future leaps – @blah_cubed
you know, nothing is easy. you need to seriously prepare for your leaps, find your nets, know your plan even tho it will change. – @traceyselingo
As long as you learn then it’s never a failure. – @deannamullican
@tif_smith I heard someone say if you are sweating a bit, that means you are stepping outside your comfort zone! good! – @monicaleeart
It can feel like its all uphill-and it usually is. But there are moments on the climb that feel easier + company makes it sweeter – @ohmyhandmade
Don’t consider it a fall, consider it a leap sideways to new scenery 🙂 – @embergrass
